Well, if it's too late and you fuckers have doomed us all, I guess we better haul out the guillotine, you absolute piece of shit.
The time for guillotines started years ago and is long overdue
That’s a really poor suggestion.
The guillotine was invented as a fast, efficient, humane method of execution. It was meant to take the human factor out of it for a clean, repeatable result.
The device you want is called a wood chipper.
I feel like the guillotine is meant as a symbol. I am also not gonna cannibalize these fucks, but I will tell you to eat them still.

it's a tragedy that desperate people would rather go after a school or church than after these fuckers.
That's what I don't get. If I'm determined to off myself, why not take someone with me that would make the world a better place to be without? I definitely have a name at the top of my list, but since I'm not suicidal, it just remains a fantasy.
I hope this post doesn't get me added to any lists myself. I'm talking in hypotheticals here.

If its too late then it's time for retaliation against those who put us in this mess in the first place.
This guy belongs in jail.
My first thought was this Onion article.
https://www.theonion.com/last-ditch-climate-change-report-provides-locations-of-1835244382
Far be it from me to tell a Lemmy mob not to eat an oil exec, but wow that's not even close to what the article says.
“So we’ve got to find a way to get the cost down to grow the utility of the solution, and make it more available and more affordable so that you can begin the [clean energy] transition.”
As per the article, this exec is saying the exact opposite of "it's too late to transition to clean energy so we might as well not bother." He's saying "it's taking too long because it's too expensive, so we need to focus on making it cheaper so we can get there faster."
Is he lying about wanting to hasten the transition to clean energy? Maybe.
Are there other reasons that he is a fiend that must be eaten by the working class? Likely. Article hints at some of them.
But wow this take is off base. These guys do a good enough job making themselves look bad, we don't have to also make stuff up.
I appreciate you doing the work to add more context for folks who didn't read the article (myself included 😅)
Lol, thanks. Sometimes I'm the one skimming the comments and skipping the article, so I'm glad I cold be helpful this time. I was expecting to get downvoted to hell based on the rest of the comments, but I'm happy to see that the response has been mostly positive.
I mean he also blames the people using electricity and says they need to pay more to cover the carbon offset costs which sounds a lot like he's looking for an excuse to raise prices and push governmental fees on consumers more directly in this same speech.
I read through the article and think him saying it's too late is like the barely visible take when he's flashing a neon sign of "I'm not cutting down production and you fuckers are gonna pay for it!" And blaming governments for not wanting to pay for company infrastructure changes is hilarious when they lobby to make it so there is no more government insight anywhere else but covering the costs they don't want to pay.
He's definitely on the list but yeah title and thing OP tried to pull from this is so not the worst part of it.

We've already blown a tire, so we might as well slash the other four, right? 🙄
Getting the spare as well just to be certain?
We've...
...said the Exon exec after they slashed your tire.

What a cunt. Is it too early to waterboard him with frack juice?
it's too late, guillotine instead
Hey hey, slow down. There's a healthy middle ground. We could waterboard him whilst he's in the guillotine, then when he's begging for air we release him head first

So the implication here is that we should just continue to die? Lmao these fucks.
Man if there's one person who's opinion I respect on climate change, it's definitely the CEO of Exxon-Mobil.
Seize the assets of the shareholders and stop the oil pumps.
Reminds me of that saying choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it. Their incentive is to do the job just good enough and with the least amount of effort. The shareholders incentive here is make money. So we need to make Fossil fuel business illegal. The shareholders still want to make money. They'll find an alternative way to do so. OH HEY LOOK! No longer reliant on fossil fuels?

I know the first mother fucker I'm eating.
Seriously, this guy is looking awfully tasty.
I'm just gonna use him to fuel the fire to cook real food tbh
I'll polish up the guillotine!
"too early, too late, whatever as long as now is not the right time that's all I care about"
Wasn't there recently an article from TheOnion or such that said this exact thing? Wild how little fucks these monsters give about anyone but themselves.
'Sounds like TheOnion, but the best I could find...
Oil And Gas Lobbyists Happy To Fill In Rest Of Nation On Who Mike Johnson Is
This has been "Climate Change Denial 2.0" for years now. Realistically, it's nothing more than a neoliberal dogwhistle to signal "I'm on board for killing everyone if it's profitable".
Ha! I just saw a post from someone here on Lemmy last week saying this is what they'll do.
There are actually books already written about how the PR folks the executives hire have been doing this for several years.
Denied, Delayed, Disinformed successfully!
CEO, "Now, board of directors, how much bonus are you paying me."
If anyone wanted a proof that environmental pessimism is only helping the oligarchs, there you fucking go
"Does anyone want to step up to pay?" No, I was thinking we could just tax the shit out of rich assholes like this empty suit and use that money.
It is never too late, don't give up. The earth without humans is generally slightly carbon negative, and there are cheap things to do that can encourage that - it will take 1000 years to undo things, but we can do it. Step 1 is becoming carbon neutral, and with wind/solar power that is easy for the majority of emitters.

To the people talking of guillotines and woodchippers, I think what you're really looking for is the Brazen Bull of Phalaris. So appropriate on so many levels.
